"We could already have a candidate for Wow Factor of the year," says Monster Jam's recap of the move—thought to be one of the longest moonwalks in the history of monster truck racing.

Anderson and Son-Uva Digger came out of the night's events with 28 show points, and the admiration of anyone who can appreciate just how much skill it takes to balance a monster truck on its nose with such precision.
